Pass the hooch, lol.... I'll cheers to that and great comment Suzie. I just recently watched a documentary about Moonshining and the Nascar connection. There's a rich history there.

Wow, I had no idea home distillation was still forbidden. So much for America being Land of the Free. Thanks for sharing this video.

lol  i thought a little levity was due ..   but it makes you think of how far we are from freedom when the natural gifts of nature that make us happy are taxed or forbidden ..  They are gifts from the earth or the God in heaven if you prefer meant to be consumed freely.   If we who inhabit this place find ways to create and trade our talents it should be left alone and to the people who use there talents to make the world a little happier .. without interference from a the government.  This is what i thought america was all about.  This is what i thought our revolution was about.  Instead we have allowed ourselves to be bullied and pushed around by a government that breaks up families and puts people in jail for non crimes.  I thought a crime was was doing harm to another 's person or property, but i find out we no longer are allowed to own property.  how did this happen?  The only thing they cannot take away from us is the place we house our spirit.  The body or temple where the real living soul resides, and sometimes that body wants a little MOONSHINE ~~  hahaha  

In order to outrun the cops when loaded with a full batch of freshly brewed moonshine it helped to have a powerful engine in a small car. Enter the orignal Nascar racers. Moonshiners used to get together to show off how fast their cars were on dirt tracks only for their own amusement. Cut to 50 years later, and you see where Nascar came from. Now, pass the hooch!

moonshine is one of the symbols of what I call freedom
